I know a Maoist "anti-imperialist" group that shows up "in solidarity" with US weapons contractor workers when they go on strike. They just show up and say, "unions are great" and then go home.

wtf is the point of being a Maoist if you don't even bury some mfs in the sand and pelt them with tomatoes every once in a while?

Any resemblance of this post to current or ongoing events is purely coincidental

I had to copy this from twitter since reading it filled me with glee and childlike wonder

"All of Tarkin's actions are justified by the fact that he's an outer rim third worldist. Another 20 destroyed KKKore World$$"

Thankfully the First Order of the Proletariat of the Oppressed Sectors continued the Tarkin Doctrine by destroying the Capita£ of the Kkkore World$$ in episode 7

The world watches... and dares to call it ‘complex.’ The United Nations, that toothless wraith, wails into the void. Europe’s aristocracy of cowards clings to its bloodstained trade deals. The Arab tyrants, jackals in gilded robes, sell their silence for scraps from the imperial table. All are accomplices, their inaction a second genocide—of morality itself. History will not absolve them. It will carve their names in ash and bile, alongside the butchers of Congo, the architects of Dresden, the merchants of Agent Orange. For the dialectic is patient, and the proletariat’s wrath—though deferred—is inevitable. When the pyres of Gaza cool, the masses will rise, not in mourning, but in revolutionary fire

I remember people working mundane jobs at some tiny ass firm in the middle of nowhere saying this after 9/11.

Not only did America deserve 9/11, it was unambiguously good

All right, look-you're a roofer, and some juicy government contract comes your way; you got the wife and kids and the two-story in suburbia - this is a government contract, which means all sorts of benefits. All of a sudden these left-wing militants blast you with lasers and wipe out everyone within a three-mile radius. You didn't ask for that. You have no personal politics. You're just trying to scrape out a living.

any contractor workin on dat Death Star knew da risks involved; if dey got kilt, it's dere own fault. a roofer lissens to dis, not his wallet.
